Elevator Pitch Coaching

Project details

What we need
  • Document outlining feedback on pitch delivery with suggested next steps and/or resources
  • A script for a 1-minute verbal pitch that communicates your Organization's mission, work, and why people should care
Additional details

- Practice sessions with a consultant on the delivery of a pitch for different audiences

What we have in place
  • We currently have one pager and a fundraising deck, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have annual reports and strategic plan, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,397 , allowing us to reach about 5 more orphaned youngsters, train them and connecting them to jobs.

I shall be travelling abroad to meet potential donors later in the year (united states and the Netherlands) I believe I need to horn up my skills in elevator pitch delivery before this time. I shall use it together with one pagers and fundraising decks during that period.
I also need my staff to be trained as well on giving elevators pitch a well. In that way they can also assist in fundraising and resources mobilization.
